073025 ~ Could Your Diet Help You Age Better? - Shanthi Appelö

July 30, 2025 ~ Lucy Ann Lance is joined by Shanthi Appelö, Registered Dietitian, Health and Wellness Spokesperson at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. They discuss a study linking flavonoids to healthy aging.

Shanti recommends incorporating these flavonoid-rich foods gradually into your diet, along with omega-3 sources, and suggests visiting ahealthiermichigan.org for more information and recipes.
